I was just going to email you and tell you that we needed you to represent Utah so that was reason enough for you to join back up! Nothing like peer pressure. And, of course, we would miss you terribly! :-)

Another statistic for you… I was flipping through the book last night and out of curiosity I tallied up the amounts of flour and butter required from cover to cover. Once we are done with all the recipes, we will have used roughly 75 pounds of flour and (brace yourself) 40 pounds of butter.

PS – I’m in Washington DC. You don’t get to cross a state off your list when you add me (because DC isn’t a state – we’re in a jurisdiction where the federal gov’t taxes without representation), but you do get to add the District of Columbia.
